2015-11-14 One more funny thing...

Elder Lind wanted photos with the clown on the wall. Funny
story... that same day, there was a Youth Conference starting in the Tuxtepec
stake, and even though it wasn't the stake center it was being hosted in
Tuxtepec. A couple weeks later, after a stake conference, we were talking with
a youth about the youth conference, and he happens to mention that the stake
president gave him a ride there (our building's a little far out from his
ward). He said that while they were driving, they passed two missionaries taking
photos with a giant clown on a wall. He said that the stake president turned to
him and said, "Just look at our hard-working missionaries."

*Awkward*

"Yup," we told him. "That was us."

[Author's note: Just so we're clear, we must have spent
about 20 seconds taking those photos. And at that exact moment,
the stake president drives by. That made my top ten most awkward moments in the
mission, only made better by the fact that the stake president didn't tell us
that himself...]
